The Berlin Wall
Without a visit to the iconic Berlin Wall, your list of places to see in Germany is incomplete. Some sections of the Berlin Wall have been well-preserved, and some are even covered in colorful graffiti, making it one of the most popular Germany tourist attractions. Tourists can visit the Berlin War Memorial and the Berlin Wall Exhibition.
From 1961 to 1989, the Berlin Wall was a guarded concrete barrier that physically and ideologically divided Berlin. The Wall was built by the German Democratic Republic (GDR, East Germany) and cut off (by land) West Berlin from virtually all of surrounding East Germany and East Berlin until it was opened by government officials in November 1989. Its demolition began on June 13, 1990, and was completed in 1992.
